You're talking about provincial issues, and you totally have my sympathies. However your new government is sticking their noses into something that they really don't have a say in under the constitution.
So your government should stfu about the pipelines which have been approved by the way legally and by the Federal government, and maybe focus their attentions on those very real provincial issues.
Didn't Clark negotiate a share of the revenues that come off of those pipelines, which could help with those issues?
Frankly we have similar issues in Alberta, we have Fentyl deaths and housing cost issues, and on top of it, unemployment issues and other economic issues, and frankly BC's actions are directly impacting the later two.
